Local leaders and Planned Parenthood staff and supporters gathered Monday in San Rafael’s West End for a sneak peek of the new center, which organizers hope will open in early June. The soon-to-be full-service facility, at 2 H Street, may create déjà vu for some community members. The 6,632-square-foot building housed a Planned Parenthood clinic in the past.
